Northern Lights closet grow - CFLs!

umm... my plant was exactly 2 weeks old when I transplanted it into a bigger pot but with MG potting mix... and it handled it beautifully.
But considering you're growing from seed, I guess you should wait till the first 3/4 bladed leaves appear... shows the plants maturity level.
Goodluck on the grow.. definitely watching this one

thanks man, i will be sure to check it out. I have been crazy busy lately.

anyways, i added the big bloom since it was the fox farms suggestion like you said, icurbyou. but i think im waiting till they are all green again and il give it like 1/4 recomended dosage. thanks guys.

so, just because i wanted to share it with you guys. i was playing around with my ph kit. actually i was working with it, it wasn't fun after the first two times. since the kit is so cheap i wanted to recheck how much ph would drop by adding different amounts of vineger. started with 1/2. it read 6.0 (thats the lowest on the scale) before i added anything it was 7.6 (the max on the scale). so then i added 1/4. hmmm looks like 6.0 still. then i added 1 or 1/2 tbl and it may have been close to 6.2, but again it looked like 6.0. so the last one i just added a tsp and guess what. it changed to 6.5

its so crazy how that little amount of vinegar did that. SO dont add a cup to begin with, nobodys water is from the same place anyways. just givin ya'll tips.

Yeah I boiled my water to get rid of the chlorine, until my plant grew old enough to handle it.
Btw, what's your current lighting?

if you look back at the picture the ones on the left are 4x26W 6500k and the rest are 6x20W 6500k. hmm boiling... i may do that. but i dont think the chlorine is affecting the massive changes i had.

yeah, cuz if it was, then it probably wouldn't be healthy for you to be drinking either.

So you have a total of 10 lights, not bad... do you planning on vegging and flowering them with the same setup?

I see 11 in the pic.

yea one of them was turned on but now i use it to hold the other one in place since they are hanging over a wood pole.

actually its going to be a larger scale pretty soon (3-4 months). I want to have a SoG grow so i have 6 plants every 3-4 weeks. I also want to make it stealth since i live in an apartment, so when its perfect ill have 3 growboxes (possibly stacked) and maybe a rubbermaid cooler for vegging the clones. that is the PLAN anyways.

hey everyone, its been a long while but im back and my plants are finally starting to grow again. i watered today and they look good. i just hope the yellow leaves turn green soon. anyways im about to watch a movie. peace.

looking much better man... give it another week and it will be all gravy as long as you keep treating em right

right about now is when they start growing like a weed.... pun intended i guess haha


did you check out my crop yet?

They are looking much healthier. Great job scrooge!!

thanks guys, i can tell they are much happier. I think i have watering covered for now on, and the nutes ill be adding eventually but the worst thing thats going to happen is that they will be in veg longer. but eh.

Q: whe they start showing preflowers in veg, do males or females tend to show first. since i know males show first usually in flower, correct?

thats debatable..

depends really some people say males....
Iv heard males mature faster than females.

rather than humans females mature faster than males lol

but wait and see and give us ur feed back.....

Yeah, I dont think those are 100% proven facts.

alrighty, good enough for me. time to play the waiting game

Yeah.. good thing there is enough time on earth.. Because I just made my filter and now its TIME to wait the hell around for my supplies to be shipped before I can drop into 12/12!

hehe yes that can be a pain in the ass i almost died when i saw white hairs


that is died from joy lol but i love males too

without males u wouldent have seeds to plant shit the natural way imma say fuck fem seed rite now!!! lol

because male cannabis makes it possible for u to smoke everyday praise him and save pollen too!!!! dont kill him he didnt ask to be brought in this world to just be killed and not used for anything dont you think so......

if i had reason to use the males i would but since space is somewhat a factor im sticking to cloning.
